Mr Swingle was one of my fondest high School memories.... I would always look forward to having him as my social studies teacher he would always talk with us on our level and he would always bring his sense of humor into everything that he did. I know that he's touched thousands of lives and none of us would be the same without him

My condolences to the Swingle family at this time. Sorry to hear of Herb’s passing. I had him for social studies and he made class both interesting and fun. He did his best to steer me in the direction of attending his Michigan alma mater, but I took a different academic direction. His efforts though, were greatly appreciated.
